Once we leave a full-day session with you, what exact disciplines and execution habits are required of our leadership team during the week to prevent our new Rocks from gathering dust?

Question

Tyler Smith · Accepted Answer

What happens between session days is what separates companies that talk about EOS® from those that actually run on it. A full day with me creates alignment and sets ninety-day priorities, but execution happens in the trenches.

Your absolute non-negotiable rhythm is the weekly Level 10 Meeting™. Every seven days, at the same time, your leadership team must meet for ninety minutes. You transition through your Segue, review your Scorecard, verify Rock progress as on track or off track, confirm customer and employee headlines, review your To-Do List, and spend the majority of your time on IDS®. You never cancel this meeting. You never move it because someone is busy.

Beyond the Level 10 Meeting™, each leader is personally responsible for driving their assigned Rocks to completion. Rocks are not quarterly wishes; they are broken down into weekly milestones. If a Rock falls off track, the owner of that Rock does not hide it. They drop it down to the Issues List to get help from their peers.

Between sessions, leaders must also cascade communication down through the organization. Within twenty-four to forty-eight hours after a quarterly session, your team should hold a brief state-of-the-company update or departmental huddle to communicate key priorities and new Rocks. Finally, your Integrator drives daily accountability, ensuring that To-Dos agreed upon in meetings are completed within seven days.
